25 COUNTY CENTER DRIVE December 13, 2019 To the Citizens of Butte County, California

The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the County of Butte (County) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, is hereby submitted in compliance with Sections 25250 and 25253 of the Government Code of the State of California (State). The report contains financial statements that have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) prescribed for government entities. Responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the County. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data are accurate in all material respects and present fairly the respective financial position of the governmental activities, business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the County, as of June 30, 2019, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flow, where applicable, thereof for the fiscal year then ended. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the County’s financial activities have been included. This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and should be read in conjunction with it. The County’s MD&A can be found on pages 15 through 28 of this report. The financial reporting entity of the County includes all the funds of the primary government (i.e., Butte County as legally defined), as well as all of its component units. Component units are legally separate entities for which the primary government is financially accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are, in substance, part of the primary government’s operations and are included as part of the primary government. Accordingly, certain districts and agencies accounted for in the Special Revenue are reported as part of the primary government. For a more detailed overview of the County’s component units see the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements. PROFILE OF THE GOVERNMENT One of the State’s original 27 counties, the County was established by an act of the State Legislature on February 18, 1850. The County is located in the northern portion of the Sacramento Valley. Rising from the Sacramento River, the County’s western boundary, to the Sierra Nevada Mountains, its eastern perimeter, the County’s 1,665 square miles range in elevation from sixty feet to over 7,000 feet resulting in a considerable variation in climate. There are five incorporated cities/town located within the County: Biggs, Chico, Gridley, Oroville, and Paradise. The County’s population is 226,466 with approximately 35% of the residents living in the unincorporated area.

(2)

Policymaking and legislative authority is vested in the County Board of Supervisors (the Board), which consists of an elected supervisor from each of five districts. The Board is responsible, among other things for passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees, appointing the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO), and appointing nonelected department heads. Supervisors are elected to four-year terms staggered every two years with two supervisors being elected during an election and two years later, three supervisors are elected. The County Charter designates that certain officers are elected which are responsible for the offices of the County: Assessor, Auditor-Controller, Clerk-Recorder, District Attorney, Sheriff-Coroner, and Treasurer-Tax Collector. The County provides a full range of services including public safety; health and sanitation; the construction and maintenance of highways, streets, and infrastructure assets; recreational activities and cultural events; election; library; social services; and administration. The County maintains a website located at: www.buttecounty.net that provides online services and extensive information about County government. The County’s website includes information about the Board of Supervisors, Board meeting agendas, County job listings, viewing and paying Property Taxes, purchasing bid solicitations, County directories, financial information and links to other local resources just to name a few.

MAJOR INITIATIVES In the wake of the Camp Fire, the demands of construction to advance the recovery of the community has led us to redirect resources. As a result our capital projects although still a priority have shifted on status. Capital Projects

• Jail Capacity Expansion Construction/Evidence Storage and Morgue

Senate Bill 863 provides for a total of up to $500 million dollars in funding to counties for the acquisition and construction of adult local criminal justice facilities, which will be made available through a competitive funding process administered by the State. Butte County submitted an application for funding in order to construct a new supplemental adult local criminal justice facility that will help the County cope with the impacts of the 2011 Public Safety Realignment, which affected an increase in the number of criminal offenders incarcerated and supervised locally. Butte County was awarded $40 million in funding from the State and will be required to provide $4.445 million in County funds. The jail construction is in the planning stage. The Evidence Storage and Morgue project is anticipated a cost of more than $8,000,000 and will be funded by Criminal Justice Facilities Construction Funds, impact fees and debt financing. This project started in August 2015 and we are now in the design and construction phase.

• Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility Module Expansion

This project includes the management, design, construction, and quality assurance for the development of four waste modules (5A-5D). Modules (5A-5C) are expected to be developed over the next 7 years. The build-out of the base liner system is anticipated to create the foundation for the remainder of the landfill’s life (estimated to end in 2048). Funding will come from Neal Road Landfill Enterprise Fund balance and landfill facility fees. The total project cost is estimated at $10,500,000. In addition, the Camp Fire required an additional management of nearly 1 million cubic yards of fire debris and ash. The county will construct new landfill disposal areas as a result. It also intends to divert 8,000 tons of wood and green waste.

(3)

• Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility Septage Receiving Station This project is to acquire and construct additional land to provide for permanent septage receiving, treatment, and disposal facilities. The funding source of this estimated $5,000,000 is the State Revolving Loan Fund for wastewater projects, Neal Road Landfill Enterprise Fund balance and landfill facility fees. The project is slated to begin fiscal year 2017-2018 to be completed in fiscal year 2022-2023. The Camp Fire caused approximately $2,000,000 of damage to the gas and storm water collection system. Those repairs are in progress.

• Fire Station 37 Reconstruction (Concow)

Fire Station 37 was destroyed by the Camp fire. Its reconstruction will be funded with insurance proceeds. We are in the design phase of this project.

FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION Economic Challenges In Novermber of 2018, the County experienced the most devastating event. The Camp Fire, which literally destroyed most of the Town of Paradise. The fire burned 153,336 acres and damaged or destroyed more than 19,000 structures. Responding to this event has strained County resources. Coordinated efforts with FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) and the State will continue through the coming year. We have increased expenditures at the Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility for debris removal and Road Fund projects for emergency repairs. We are challenged with the need for grant management related to the disaster programs for disaster resonse, debris and tree removal to name a few. We’ve also encountered a new economic challenge this year imposed by PG&E. The public safety power shutoffs has necessitated the additional resources to maintain operational continuity.

The County has established a pension strategy which includes setting up a 115 Trust to collect an extra 1% of payroll for funding the growing unfunded pension liabilities.

The County has been fortunate to receive three years of property tax backfill to help fill the gap caused by the devastation of the Camp Fire. As we focus on recovering and then rebuilding Paradise and the surrounding communities impacted by the devastation we are optimistic that Butte County Strong will prevail. However, it’s important to be mindful of the necessary prudence when utilizing our limited resources as we brace for the economic challenges facing us today and in the near future. Internal Control

The management of the County has established a comprehensive framework of internal controls designed to ensure that the assets of the government are protected from loss, theft or misuse. This framework ensures that adequate accounting data is compiled to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that these objectives are met. Reasonable assurance provides that the cost of internal controls should not exceed the benefits and that decisions often require the use of estimates and judgments by management.

Single Audit

As a recipient of federal and state financial assistance, the County is required to undergo an annual single audit in conformity with the provisions of the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and the U.S. Office of

(4)

Management and Budget Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-profit Organizations. Information related to this single audit includes the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards, Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs, and the independent auditor’s report on internal control and compliance. The County is also responsible for ensuring that adequate internal controls are in place to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to those programs. Internal controls are subject to periodic evaluation by management and the Auditor-Controller Division’s internal audit staff. The 2018-2019 Single Audit will be issued under separate cover and will be available on the Butte County website http://www.buttecounty.net/auditor.

Budgeting Controls

In addition to accounting controls, the County maintains budgetary controls. The objective of these controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the Board of Supervisors.

In accordance with the provisions of Sections 29000 and 29143, inclusive, of the California Government Code and other statutory provisions, commonly known as the County Budget Act, the County prepares a budget for each fiscal year on or before August 30. Budgeted expenditures are enacted into law through the passage of an appropriation. This mandates the maximum authorized expenditures for the fiscal year and cannot be exceeded except by subsequent amendments to the budget by the County’s Board of Supervisors.

An operating budget is adopted each fiscal year for all Governmental Funds. Expenditures are controlled at the object level within budget units for the County. The object level within a budget unit is the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations. Pursuant to Board Resolution 04-029 transfers of appropriations between object levels within the same budget unit require approval of the Chief Administrative Office and Auditor-Controller. Any amendments or transfers of appropriations between departments or funds must be approved by the Board of Supervisors. The Board of Supervisors must approve supplementary appropriations normally financed by unanticipated revenues during the year. Budgeted amounts in the budgetary financial schedules are reported as originally adopted and are amended during the fiscal year by resolutions approved by the Board of Supervisors.

The County uses an encumbrance system as a tool to assist in controlling expenditures beyond the normal budgetary accounting for the general, special revenue, debt service funds and the capital projects funds. Under this system, purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of applicable appropriations.

Credit Rating

The County continues to maintain its credit rating of A+ by Standard and Poor’s Rating Service. The County proudly maintains a strong credit rating and strives to continue this achievement. OTHER INFORMATION

Independent Audit

(5)

County charter requires an annual audit by independent certified public accountants. The firm of Clifton, Larson & Allen, LLP was selected by the County to meet this requirement. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the County, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditors concluded, based upon their audit results, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unqualified (clean) opinion that the County’s basic financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, are fairly presented in conformity with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America. The independent auditor’s report is presented as the first item of the financial section of the report.

Awards and Acknowledgments

The GFOA awarded the prestigious Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the County for successful completion of the CAFR for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. This achievement represents the County’s 12th consecutive award. This award is the highest form of recognition for excellence in state and local government reporting. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, the government had to publish an easily readable and efficiently organized CAFR that satisfied both accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and applicable legal requirements.

A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe this current CAFR continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program’s requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.

The preparation of this Comprehensive Annual Financial Report could not have been accomplished without the efficient and dedicated services of staff from the Auditor-Controller office and the cooperation and assistance of all County departments. I would like to commend the Board of Supervisors for its interest, support, and exemplary leadership in planning and conducting the financial operations of the County in a responsive and progressive manner.

Respectfully submitted,

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

Board of Supervisors County of Butte, California Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the County of Butte, California (the County), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the County’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the County, as of June 30, 2019, and the respective changes in financial position, and where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, the schedule of changes in net pension liability and related ratios, schedule of plan contributions for the County’s employees’ retirement plan, the schedule of changes in County’s other postemployment benefits (OPEB) plan and related ratios, schedule of plan contributions for the County’s OPEB plan, and budgetary comparison information, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the County of Butte’s basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules, and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 13, 2019 on our consideration of the County’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the County’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. Basic Financial Statements The basic financial statements presented in the County’s CAFR are divided into three different sections: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements and 3) the notes to the financial statements. This report also includes supplementary information intended to furnish additional detail to support the basic financial statements themselves.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

JUNE 30, 2019

(14)

B. Government-Wide Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide an overview of the County’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business that is, using the accrual basis of accounting. They demonstrate accountability of Butte County by showing the extent to which it has met operating objectives efficiently and effectively, using all resources available, and whether it can continue to do so. The statement of net position presents information on all of the County’s assets and liabilities, and deferred inflows/outflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the County is improving or declining.

The statement of activities presents information showing how the County’s net position changed during the fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave). The statement of net position and the statement of activities distinguish functions of the County that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the County include general government, public protection, public ways and facilities, health and sanitation, public assistance, education, and recreation. The business-type activities of the County include a waste management operation.

The government-wide financial statements also provide information regarding the County’s component units, entities for which the County (the primary government) is considered to be financially accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are in substance part of the County’s operations and therefore data from these component units are blended in with operational funds of the County.

C. Fund Financial Statements

The fund financial statements provide evidence of accountability by demonstrating compliance with budgetary decisions made in public forum. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that are used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or purposes stipulated by laws, regulations or policies. The funds of the County are divided into three categories: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary funds.

Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

JUNE 30, 2019

(15)

Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

The County maintains 17 individual governmental funds. On the financial statements for governmental funds information is presented separately for four major funds: the General Fund, the Social Services Fund, the Behavioral Health Fund, and the Road Fund. Data from the other governmental funds are aggregated into a single column. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the combining statements and schedules section of this report.

The County adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general fund. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the general fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.

Proprietary funds are of two types. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The County uses an enterprise fund to account for its central landfill operations. Internal service funds are used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the County’s various functions. The County uses internal service funds to account for insurance and utilities. Because these services predominantly benefit governmental rather than business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.

Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the part of government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The County’s internal service funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements.

Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statement because the resources of those funds are not available to support the County’s programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.

D. Notes to the Basic Financial Statements

The notes to the basic financial statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the financial information provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

A large portion of the County’s net position, $97,471 in governmental activities and $29,614 in business-type activities, reflects the County’s investment in capital assets (i.e. its land, structures and improvements, infrastructure, and equipment), less any related outstanding debt issued to acquire those assets. The County uses these capital assets to provide a variety of services to citizens. Accordingly, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the County’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. Restricted net position of $117,376 for governmental activities is the net position subject to external restrictions on how they may be used.

The following highlights significant factors that affected the governmental and business-type activities and contributed to the decrease in net position:

• Governmental Activities accounted for a decrease in net position of $26,062 primarily due to increased retirement costs.

• Business-Type Activities accounted for an increase in net position of $14,211 primarily due to increased revenues.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS

As noted earlier, the County uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with budgetary and legal requirements. Governmental Funds The general government functions are included in the General, Special Revenue, Capital Project, Permanent, and Debt Service Funds. Included in these funds are the special districts governed by the Board of Supervisors. The focus of the County’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the County’s financing requirements. In particular, total fund balance less the nonspendable portion is a useful measure of the County’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. At June 30, 2019, the County’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $141,401. The components of total fund balance are as follows:

• Nonspendable fund balance – $1,029 are amounts that are not spendable in form, or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact, and are made up of inventories and prepaid expenses.

• Restricted fund balance – $115,560 consists of amounts with constraints put on their use by externally imposed creditors, grantors, contributions, laws, regulations or enabling legislation.

• Committed fund balance – $8,000 has been established by the Board as an emergency reserve.

• Assigned fund balance – $2,799 are amounts intended to be used for specific purposes by the Board of Supervisors.

• Unassigned fund balance – $14,012 represents the residual classification for the County’s General Fund.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

JUNE 30, 2019

(19)

Approximately 99.26% or, $140,371 of the total fund balances is available to meet the County’s current and future needs. With the approval of the Board of Supervisors, County management may allocate a portion of fund balance to a particular function, project, or activity, and may also allocate for purposes beyond the current year, within the constraints applied to the various categories of fund balance. With the exception of the nonspendable portion, fund balances are available for appropriation at any time. The general fund is the main operating fund of the County. The General Fund balance increased by $6,113 or 12% during the current fiscal year due to increased revenues including State and Federal grants. The social services fund has a total fund balance of $7,648 of which $28 is nonspendable and $7,620 is restricted. The overall fund balance decreased by $393 primarily resulting from reduced one-time revenues and increased expenditures. The behavioral health fund has a total fund balance of $11,756 of which $42 is nonspendable and the rest is restricted. The overall fund balance decreased by $6,208 primarily resulting from reduced one-time revenues and increased expenditures. The road fund has a total fund balance of $4,872 of which $4,472 is restricted. The overall fund balance increased by $1,435 primarily resulting from increased funding from SB1 Road Repair & Accountability Act of 2017. The following table presents revenues from various sources as well as reflecting increases or decreases from the prior fiscal year in the governmental funds.

FISCAL OUTLOOK

The County adopted its fiscal year 2019-2020 Final Budget in the total amount of $616,374, with a General Fund overall emergency reserve level of $8,000. The County will continue to face difficult fiscal challenges in the foreseeable future. The most critical fiscal uncertainty facing the County continues to be the impact on local government resulting from actions of the State of California. The newly elected administration will need to address its own fiscal challenges, including fire safety, the California Department of Water Resources and the continued construction on the Emergency Spillway, the Camp Fire incident and recovery, and health and human services IHSS

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. The Financial Reporting Entity

The County of Butte (County), which was incorporated as a County in 1850 as one of the State’s original 27 counties, is a legal subdivision of the State of California charged with governmental powers. The County’s powers are exercised through a Board of Supervisors, which, as the governing body of the County, is responsible for the legislative and executive control of the County. As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these financial statements present the government and its component units; legally separate entities for which the County is considered to be financially accountable. Financial accountability is demonstrated by the County Board of Supervisors acting as the governing board for each of the component units. In evaluating how to define the County for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The decision to include a potential component unit in the reporting entity was made by applying the criteria set forth in Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 14, The Financial Reporting Entity. Blended component units, although legally separate entities are, in substance, part of the County’s operations: therefore data from these units are combined with data of the primary government. Financial accountability is primarily demonstrated by the County’s Board acting as, or appointing, the governing board for each of the component units and its ability to impose its will. Because of their relationship with the County and the nature of their operations, component units are, in substance, part of the County’s operations and, accordingly, the activities of these component units are combined, or blended with the activities of the County for purposes of reporting in the accompanying basic financial statements. Each blended component unit has a June 30, 2019 fiscal year-end. Discretely presented component units, also legally separate entities are separately stated from the County in the financial report. These component units are financially accountable to the County but for all practical purposes, function on their own. Based on the criteria established by GASB 14, as amended by GASB Statement No. 39, the reporting entity also includes the following blended component units, which are Special Districts under control of the Board of Supervisors. The following County Service Areas and Permanent Road Divisions are blended and included in the reporting entity because the component unit’s board is the same as the board of the County and 2) County management has operational responsibility for the agency.

B. Basis of Presentation

Government-Wide Financial Statements

While separate government-wide and fund financial statements are presented, they are interrelated. The governmental activities column incorporates data from governmental funds and internal service funds, while business-type activities incorporate data from the government’s enterprise funds. Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. The statement of activities presents a comparison between program expenses and program revenues for each segment of the business-type activities of the County and for each function of the County’s governmental activities. Program expenses include direct expenses, which are clearly identifiable with a specific function, and allocated indirect expenses. Program revenues include 1) charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular program. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented instead as general revenues. The County has no discretely presented component units to present at this time but will continue to assess any potential component units. While they may not be considered as a major component unit, they would nevertheless be shown in a separate column in the government-wide financial statements. Fund Financial Statements The fund financial statements provide information about the government’s funds, including its fiduciary funds and blended component units. Separate statements for each fund category—governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary—are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental and enterprise funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds. Major individual governmental and enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.

(42)

Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operation. The principal operating revenues of the County’s enterprise funds and internal services funds are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administration expenses, and depreciation of capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.

The County reports the following major governmental funds:

• The General Fund is used to account for all revenues and expenditures necessary to carry out basic governmental activities of the County that are not accounted for through other funds. For the County, the General Fund includes such activities as public protection, public ways and facilities, health and sanitation, public assistance, education and recreation services.

• The Social Services Fund was established to account for the activities of the Butte County Department of Employment and Social Services. The department administers the CalWORKs program, Adult and Children’s Protection Services and various other state, federal, and local assistance programs that are funded primarily by state and federal grants.

• The Behavioral Health Fund was established to account for the activities of the

Butte County Department of Behavioral Health. The department provides a comprehensive continuum of services meeting community needs related to mental health and substance abuse problems. Revenue sources are primarily sales tax revenue and state grants.

• The Road Fund provides for planning, design, construction, maintenance, and

administration of County transportation planning activities. Revenues consist primarily of the County’s share of state highway user taxes and are supplemented by federal funds.

The County reports the following major enterprise fund:

• The Landfill Fund was established to account for the County’s costs of providing landfill and related waste disposal services to the citizens of Butte County in both the unincorporated and incorporated areas of the County.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(43)

The County reports the following additional fund types:

• Internal Service Funds account for the County’s risk management, unemployment insurance, and utilities on a cost-reimbursement basis. Internal Service Funds are presented in summary form as part of the proprietary fund financial statements. In the government-wide financial statements, the changes in net position at the end of the fiscal year, as presented in the statements of activities, were allocated to the user functions of the governmental activities, to reflect the entire activity for the year. Since the predominant users of the internal services are the County’s governmental activities, the asset and liability balances of the internal service funds are consolidated into the governmental activities column at the government-wide level.

• The Investment Trust Fund accounts for the assets of legally separate entities

that deposit cash with the County Treasurer in an investment pool, which commingles resources in the investment portfolio for the benefit of all participants. These entities include school and community college districts, other special districts governed by local boards, regional boards and authorities and pass through funds for tax collections for cities.

• The Agency Funds are custodial in nature and do not involve measurement of

the results of operations. Such funds have no equity accounts since all assets are due to individuals or entities at some future time. These funds account for assets held by the County as an agent for other government units. These units include Butte County SB-325 and SB-620, and other special districts governed by local boards, regional boards and authorities, and pass through funds for tax collections for cities.

C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting

The accounting and financial reporting treatment is determined by the applicable measurement focus and basis of accounting. Measurement focus indicates the type of resources being measured such as current financial resources or economic resources. The Basis of accounting indicates the timing of transactions or events for recognition in the financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Operating revenues are those that result from providing services. Operating expenses for proprietary funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation of capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses. Grants and similar items are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligible requirements have been satisfied.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(44)

The governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when they become both measurable and available. “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction can be determined and “available” means that revenues are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. Property tax revenues are recognized in the current year if they are collected within 60 days of fiscal year-end. For all other revenues, the County considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Revenues not considered available are recorded as deferred inflows. The County’s other primary revenue sources: investment income, intergovernmental revenues, and charges for services have been treated as “susceptible to accrual” under the modified accrual basis. Licenses and permits, fines, forfeitures and penalties, and other revenue are not considered “susceptible to accrual” under the modified accrual basis and are recorded as revenues when received. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and Judgments, are recorded when payment is due. When both restricted and unrestricted net positions are available, unrestricted resources are used only after the restricted resources are depleted.

D. Cash and Cash Equivalents

The County maintains a Cash and Investment Pool that holds deposits for all County funds, Butte County Schools and Special Districts, and certain other local agency depositors. For some entities, participation is mandatory. Some of the outside agencies under mandatory participation in the Investment Pool are Superior Court, Autonomous Special Districts, Schools, and Community College Districts. Other local agencies may qualify to participate on a voluntary basis, such as the Butte County Association of Governments, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, Thermalito Water & Power and the Butte County Fair, to name a few. The Pool is not registered as an investment company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) nor is it an SEC Rule 2a7-like pool. The Treasurer’s Statement of Investment Policy is prepared in accordance with California Government Code, and approved annually by the County’s Treasury Oversight Committee, and the Board of Supervisors. State statutes and the County’s investment policy authorize the County Treasurer to invest in instruments described in California Government Code Section 53601 and 53635, including but not limited to: U.S. Government Treasury and Agency Securities, bankers’ acceptances, commercial paper, corporate bonds and notes, repurchase agreements and the State Treasurer’s Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). In accordance with GASB Statement No. 31, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and External Investment Pools, investments held by the County Treasurer are stated at fair value.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(45)

The fair value of investments in the Pool is determined monthly based upon quoted market prices. The County has not provided nor obtained any legally binding guarantees during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 to support the values of shares in the Pool. However, management believes that the investments in the Pool are of high quality and that the risk of participation in the Pool is negligible. The Pool is subject to oversight by the Treasury Oversight Committee, as recommended by the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission. The Pool values participants’ shares on an amortized cost basis. Specifically, the Pool distributes income to participants quarterly based on their relative participation during the month, which is calculated based on (1) realized investment gains and losses computed on an amortized cost basis, (2) interest income based on stated rates (both paid and accrued), (3) amortization of discounts and premiums on a straight-line basis, and (4) investment and administrative expenses. This method differs from the fair value method used to value investments in these financial statements because the amortized cost method is not designed to distribute to participants all unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of the Pool’s investments. Investment income related to investments reported in certain funds may be assigned to other funds based upon legal or contractual provisions. For purposes of the accompanying statement of cash flows – Proprietary Funds, the County considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased, and their equity in the County Treasurer’s investment pool, to be cash equivalents.

E. Inventories and Prepaid Items

Inventories are valued at cost, which is determined on a first-in, first-out basis, and consist primarily of expendable supplies held for consumption. The cost is recorded as expenditures when items are consumed, rather than when purchased. Payments made for services that will benefit future accounting periods are recorded as prepaid items. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased. The inventories and prepaid items recorded in the governmental funds do not reflect current appropriable resources and, thus, an equivalent portion of fund balance is reported as nonspendable.

F. Property Taxes

Property taxes attach as an enforceable lien on January 1. Secured taxes are levied on July 1 and are payable in two installments due by December 10 and April 10. All general property taxes are then allocated by the County Auditor-Controller’s Office to the various taxing entities per the legislation-implementing Proposition 13. The method of allocation used by the County is subject to review by the State of California.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(46)

Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies The County utilizes the alternative method of property tax distribution, whereby the County, through the legally required Tax Resource Agency Fund’ purchases the current secured unpaid taxes remaining at year-end from participating agencies. In return, the Tax Resource Agency Fund records a tax receivable and receives the delinquent secured taxes. The Tax Loss Reserve Agency Fund receives delinquent penalties and redemption interest accruing to delinquent collections related to participating agencies. The participating agencies, including the County, the special districts, and the school districts, in turn, receive their full tax distribution with no liability for uncollected taxes to the Tax Resource Agency Fund. Therefore, for participating agencies, revenue is measurable and available and is recorded in the period the payment of current secured unpaid taxes is received. Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies The County is required to create a tax loss reserve fund (an agency fund) under one of two alternative methods: 1) 1% of the total amount of taxes and assessments levied on the secured roll for the year or 2) 25% of the total delinquent secured taxes and assessments as calculated at the end of the fiscal year. The County is using 3% of the total amount of taxes and assessments levied on the secured roll for the year to establish its tax loss reserve.

G. Loans Receivable

Loans receivable relate to the Housing and Community Development Program funded by federal and state monies. Loans receivable are collateralized by deeds of trust. Proceeds from the collection of the loans receivable and resale of assets held for sale are restricted by the terms of the grant and, accordingly, are reported as a nonspendable component of fund balance since they do not constitute available spendable resources. No amount has been provided as an allowance for doubtful accounts because all material amounts are collectible.

H. Capital Assets

Capital assets (including infrastructure) are recorded at historical cost or estimated cost if actual historical cost is not available. Contributed capital assets such as works of art of similar items, and capital assets received in a service arrangement should be reported at acquisition value rather than fair value. Capital assets include public domain (infrastructure) general capital assets consisting of certain improvements including roads, bridges, water/sewer, lighting system, drainage systems, and flood control. The County defines capital assets as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $25,000 for machinery, equipment and computer software; more than $125,000 for infrastructure, buildings, and land improvements; and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Capital assets used in operations are depreciated or amortized (assets under capital leases) using the straight-line method over the lesser of the capital lease period or their estimated useful lives in the government-wide statements and the proprietary funds.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(47)

The estimated useful lives are as follows: Buildings and Building Improvements 30 to 50 Years Infrastructure 30 to 50 Years Land Improvements 20 Years Equipment 5 to 20 Years Vehicles 5 to 15 Years Computer Software 5 Years The County has five networks of infrastructure assets – roads, water/sewer, lighting, drainage, and flood control. Infrastructure has been included in the County’s capital assets at historical cost and net of related depreciation.

I. Deferred outflows/inflows of resources

In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/ expenditure) until then. The County reports deferred outflows of resources for both pension and OPEB activities. In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period (s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The County has deferred inflows of resources related to unavailable revenues reported under the modified actual basis of accounting in the governmental funds balance sheet and related to pensions and OPEB in its proprietary and government-wide statements. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from amounts due from the Federal and State, and other sources as appropriate. These amounts are deferred and recognized as revenues in the period the amounts become available.

J. Compensated Absences

The liability for compensated absences reported in the government-wide and proprietary fund statements consists of unpaid, accumulated leave balances. The liability has been calculated using the vesting method, in which leave amounts for both employees who currently are eligible to receive termination payments and other employees who are expected to become eligible in the future to receive such payments upon termination are included.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(48)

K. Interfund Receivables and Payables

Interfund transactions are reflected as either loans, services provided, reimbursements, or transfers. Loans are reported as receivables and payables as appropriate, are subject to elimination upon consolidation and are referred to as either “due to/from other funds” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the noncurrent portion of interfund loans). Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and the business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as “internal balances”. Advances between funds, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by a fund balance reserve account in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not available financial resources. All interfund transactions are treated as transfers. Transfers between governmental or proprietary funds are netted as part of the reconciliation to the government-wide presentation.

L. Use of Estimates

The preparation of basic financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

M. Presentation of Financial Information Related to County Fiduciary Responsibilities

The basic financial statements also include an Investment Trust fund to account for cash and investments held by the County Treasurer for numerous self-governed school and special districts. The financial reporting for these governmental entities, which are independent of the County, is limited to the total amount of cash and investments and other assets, and the related fiduciary responsibility of the County for disbursement of these assets. School and special district boards that are separately elected, and that are independent of the County Board of Supervisors, administer activities of the school districts and special districts. The County Auditor-Controller makes disbursements upon the request of the responsible self-governed special district officers. The Board has no effective authority to govern, manage, approve budgets, assume financial accountability, establish revenue limits, or appropriate surplus funds available in these entities. Therefore, these entities are fiscally independent of the County. Five cities and numerous self-governed special districts provide services to the residents of the County. The operations of these entities have been excluded from the basic financial statements since each entity conducts its own day-to-day operations and is controlled by its own governing board.

N. Net Position

The government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund financial statements utilize a net position presentation. Net position is categorized as net investment in capital assets, restricted, or unrestricted. Net investment in Capital Assets – This category groups all capital assets, including infrastructure, into one component of net position. Accumulated depreciation and the outstanding balances of debt that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of these assets reduce the balance in this category. Restricted– This category presents external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors or laws or regulations of other governments and restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or legislation. Unrestricted– This category represents net position of the County, not restricted for any project or other purpose.

O. Fund Balance

In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report fund balance as nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned, or unassigned based primarily on the extent to which the County is bound to honor constraints on how specific amounts can be spent.

• Nonspendable Fund Balance – amounts that are not in a spendable form or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact (such as inventories or prepaid amounts).

• Restricted Fund Balance – amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes

stipulated by external parties (such as creditors, grant providers or contributors) or by law.

• Committed Fund Balance – amounts that can be used only for the specific

purpose determined by a resolution approved by the Board of Supervisors. Commitments remain binding unless changed or lifted only by the Board of Supervisors taking the same formal action that imposed the constraint originally. The formal action must occur prior to the end of the reporting period. The amount which will be subject to the constraint may be determined in the subsequent period.

• Assigned Fund Balance – amounts intended to be used by the government entity

for specific purposes that are neither restricted nor committed. Intent can be expressed by the Board of Supervisors or by an official or body to which the Board delegates the authority. Assigned fund balance can also be used to eliminate a projected budgetary deficit in the subsequent year’s budget.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(50)

• Unassigned Fund Balance – the residual classification for the General Fund,

including all amounts not contained in the other classifications. Unassigned amounts are technically available for any purpose. The General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. In other governmental funds it is not appropriate to report a positive unassigned fund balance amount. However, in governmental funds other than the general fund, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed the amounts that are restricted, committed or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance in that fund.

• Fund Balance Policy – based on the County’s policy regarding the fund balance classification that was approved by the Board of Supervisors, when both restricted and unrestricted funds are available for expenditure, restricted funds should be spent first unless legal requirements disallow it. When expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any unrestricted fund balance classification could be used, committed funds are to be spent first, assigned funds second, and unassigned funds last. Only the Board of Supervisors has the authority to assign unassigned fund balance amounts where the County’s intent is for those amounts to be used for specific purposes.

P. Pensions

For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Plan and additions to/deductions from the Plan’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the CalPERS Financial office. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.

Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways that the County manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations. Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the County’s investments (including investments held by bond trustee) to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the County’s investments by maturity:

Credit Risk Credit risk exists when there is the possibly that the issuer or other counterparty to an investment may be unable to fulfill its obligations. To mitigate this risk, the County's Investment Policy, which is more restrictive than the California Government Code, places a minimum standard on the rating of investments held in the Pool. Investments in securities other than those guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or government sponsored enterprises must have a credit rating of no less than AA-. Securities that are fully guaranteed as to payment by an agency, or government sponsored enterprise of the U.S. Government, were rated AA- or better by nationally recognized statistical-rating organizations. As of June 30, 2019 the County invested in primarily high quality investments as shown below:

Custodial Credit Risk Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the County’s investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provision for deposits: The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The market value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure County deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits. It is the County’s practice to disallow first trust deed mortgage notes as collateral for the County’s secured deposits. Investment in State Investment Pool The County is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated by the California Government Code under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. This fund is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment company, but is required to invest according to California State Code. Participants in the pool include voluntary and involuntary participants, such as special districts and school districts for which there are legal provisions regarding their investments. The Local Investment Advisory Board (Board) has oversight responsibility for LAIF. The Board consists of five members as designated by state statute. The fair value of the County’s investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying financial statements at amounts based upon the County’s pro-rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting records maintained by LAIF, which are recorded on an amortized cost basis.

Fair Value Measurements GASB Statement 72, Fair Value Measurements and Application, sets for the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under GASB 72 are described as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the County has the ability to access. Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

• Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; • Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; • Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; • Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market

data by correlation or other means. Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the County’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the County’s own data.

The asset’s level within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The determination of what constitutes observable requires judgment by the County’s management. County management considers observable data to be that market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable, and verifiable not proprietary, and provided by multiple independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The categorization of an investment within the hierarchy is based upon the relative observability of the inputs to its fair value measurement and does not necessarily correspond to County management’s perceived risk of that investment.

Fair Value Measurements (Continued) The following is a description of the valuation methods and assumptions used by the County to estimate the fair value of its investments. There have been no changes in the methods and assumptions used for the previous year-end. The methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of the realizable value or reflective of future fair values. County management believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. When available, quoted prices are used to determine fair value. When quoted prices in active markets are available, investments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The County’s Level 1 investments primarily consist of investments in corporate debt securities, and mutual funds. When quoted prices in active markets are not available, fair values are based on evaluated prices received from the County’s custodian of investments. For the large portion of the County’s portfolio, the County’s custodians generally use a multi-dimensional relational model. Inputs to their pricing models are based on observable markets inputs in active markets. The inputs to the pricing models are typically benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, and benchmark securities, among others. The County owns no Level 3 investments

These bonds were issued to save future interest costs associated with the County’s pension obligations. Series A is comprised of serial and term bonds with fixed interest rates. The average coupon rate is 6.002% over the remaining life of the bonds. Series B has a variable rate derived from the one-month LIBOR index plus a margin of .30%. (The County elected to exercise its option to prepay Series C on September 1, 2007.) For fiscal year 2018/2019, the average rate paid for Series B was 2.41647%. The next payment of interest for Series A is due December 1, 2019. The interest payments for Series B are paid the first business day of each month. Principal payments for both Series A and B are due annually through maturity in fiscal year 2034.

Debt Refunding Business-Type Activities In July of 2016, the County entered into a lease financing with Capital One Public Founding for $4,220,000. The proceeds were used for a current refunding of the 2006 Certificates of Participation (COPs) for Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility improvements. The refunding was undertaken to reduce total debt service payments by, approximately $345,000 over four (4) year term and resulted in an economic gain of $320,675.

Compensated Absences Vacation is accrued at varying rates depending on an employee's years of service. Upon termination, an employee is paid at 100% of the amount accrued. Compensated absences for vacation are paid out at the employee's current rate of pay. Administrative leave is accrued by employees exempt from paid overtime and may be accrued up to a maximum of 352 hours. Administrative leave is paid out at the current hourly rate. Options for sick leave include the following. Upon termination an employee may be compensated for sick leave amounts accrued over 240 hours at half the normal pay rate not to exceed $3,000. Employees other than Department Heads, Elected Department Heads, Board of Supervisors, Non-Represented, and Board Executive Assistants hired after June 30, 2010 will not be eligible for sick-leave buy out nor will they receive one year of County-paid health benefits after retirement. Retiree benefits are determined by bargaining unit and date of hire. Please see the Retiree sick leave conversion by unit for updated changes. In general Appointed Department Heads, Elected Department Heads, Non-Represented, Confidential, BCMEA, and Boards Executive Assistants, are limited to a plan up to the price of the Blue Shield HMO. PPOA, PPOA management, Professional Unit, District Attorney, Skilled Trades, BCCOA, and BCCOA Supervisory are all at the lowest cost plan offered by CalPERS. DSA, and DSA Management, may have the PORAC plan as long as it is one of the two least expensive plans. The General unit and the Social Workers unit, receive the Select Plus Rate for health insurance into retirement. The County does not accrue for compensated absences in its governmental fund statements and recognizes liabilities for compensated absences only if they are due and payable in an event such as termination. However, in the statement of activities the expense is allocated to each function based on usage. The compensated absences liability attributable to the governmental activities will be liquidated as follows: General Fund 54%, Social Services Fund 17%, Public Health Fund 6%, Behavioral Health Fund 15%, Road Fund 5%, and Nonmajor Funds 3%.

Landfill Closure and Post-Closure Costs State and federal laws and regulations require the County operator to place a final cover on its Neal Road Landfill site when it stops accepting waste, and to perform certain maintenance and monitoring functions at the site for thirty years after closure. Although closure and post-closure care costs will be paid only near to or after the date the landfill stops accepting waste, the County reports a portion of these closure and post-closure care costs as an operating expense in each period based on landfill capacity used as of each balance sheet date. The County Neal Road Landfill Joint Technical Document (JTD) was revised in May 2016, resulting in change of available landfill capacity from the original design in 2002. The new calculated capacity for the Landfill is smaller compared with the original design, which resulted in a greater percent of capacity filled. According to the revised JTD document, as of August 31, 2016, with the annual inflation factor, the estimated highest closure costs, highest correction costs and highest post-closure costs are $12,666,993, $1,916,527, and $10,686,050, respectively.

Annually, the Landfill adjusts estimated closure and correction costs due to changes in inflation and capacity. Such changes resulted in an increase to the Landfill closure, correction care and post-closure liability and caused an increase in expense. Based upon new estimated capacity, 33.254% capacity is reported to date as the cumulative usage as of June 30, 2019. The $8,403,238, reported as landfill closure and corrective action and post-closure liability at June 30, 2019, represents the 33.254% of the estimated closure and corrective action and post-closure costs. The County will recognize the remaining estimated closure costs of $16,866,332 as the remaining estimated capacity is filled. These amounts are based on what it would cost to perform all closure, corrective actions and post-closure maintenance in 2019. The County expects to close the landfill in the fiscal year 2031. Actual costs may be higher due to changes resulting from inflation, deflation, technology, or changes in applicable laws or regulations. In addition, the County Board established a Pledge of Revenue in 2005 to demonstrate financial responsibility for post-closure maintenance of the Neal Road Landfill. The amount of $356,202 Pledge Revenue per year in 2019 dollars for the thirty years period of post-closure maintenance, representing the most recent post-closure maintenance cost estimate of $10,686,050. Rebatable Arbitrage Earnings The Tax Reform Act of 1986 instituted certain arbitrage restrictions with respect to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds after August 31, 1986. Arbitrage regulations deal with the investment of all tax-exempt bond proceeds at an interest yield greater than the interest yield paid to bondholders. Generally, all interest paid to bondholders can be retroactively rendered taxable if applicable rebates are not reported and paid to the Internal Revenue Service at least every five years. During the current year, the County performed calculations of excess investment earnings on various bonds and financings and at June 30, 2019 does not expect to incur a liability.

The restricted component of net position are assets that are subject to constraints either externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments, or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. The Board of Supervisors revised the General Fund Reserve Policy originally adopted in 2010 on May 9, 2017. The policy was created to allow the County to respond strategically and responsibly to legally declared emergencies as defined in Government Code § 29086. This policy sets forth the parameters and funding methods the County may utilize to establish and maintain an adequate General Fund reserve.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(72)

General Reserve requirements are classified as follows:

• Appropriation for Contingencies – During the public hearing on the Proposed Budget, the Board of Supervisors will consider establishing an Appropriation for Contingencies in the General Fund equal to or greater than five percent (5%) of the Proposed Budget for the General Fund.

• General Fund Reserve – It is the goal of the Board of Supervisors to build a General Fund Reserve to an amount equivalent to two months of operating expenses for all County governmental funds.

o During the public hearing on the Proposed Budget the Board of Supervisors will consider directing contributions to the General Fund Reserve in the following circumstances: When projected General Fund tax revenue receipts for the upcoming

fiscal year are expected to increase by more than four percent (4%) over the current (closing) fiscal year, the Board of Supervisors will consider contributing to the General Fund Reserve at least half (50%) of the growth over and above the four percent (4%) baseline anticipated tax revenue growth.

When one-time, unanticipated, discretionary revenues exceeding $500,000 with no offsetting expenditures were received over the current (closing) fiscal year, the Board of Supervisors will consider contributing all or a portion of those funds to the General Fund Reserve.

When the County Auditor-Controller and the Chief Financial Officer determine additional working capital is needed in the General Fund Reserve for cash flow of the County, the Board of Supervisors will consider contributing the calculated amount needed to cover cash flow demands.

o During the public hearing on the Proposed Budget, in response to fiscal emergency or as part of a multiyear plan to adjust to revenue losses, the Board of Supervisors may consider reducing the amount set aside in the General Fund Reserve.

• Excess Fund Balance Available – When adopting the annual budget for the General Fund, the Board of Supervisors will provide direction to the County Auditor-Controller to reconcile the difference between the General Fund’s estimated and actual Fund Balance Available at the beginning of the budget period. In those instances when the actual Fund Balance Available is less than estimated, the County Auditor-Controller will be directed to reduce the General Fund Appropriation for Contingencies. In those instances when the actual Fund Balance Available is greater than estimated, the County Auditor-Controller will be given specific direction, generally within the following parameters:

o The first priority for Excess General Fund Balance Available at the beginning of each fiscal year, if any, is to increase the Appropriation for Contingencies to ensure it is maintained, at a minimum, at the five percent (5%) level.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(73)

o The second priority for Excess General Fund Balance Available at the

beginning of each fiscal year, if any, is to increase the General Fund Reserve to help achieve the goal of setting aside two months of operating expenses.

o The third priority for Excess General Fund Balance Available at the beginning of each fiscal year, if any, is to designate fund balance for known and quantified unfunded liabilities, including but not limited to the following: Employee pension plan Other post employment benefits Accrued employee leave

• Unreserved Fund Balance – The County will maintain sufficient fund balances in the

General Fund to provide adequate working capital and to accommodate required adjustments to other reserve accounts, including advances to other funds. Appropriations or use of funds from Unreserved Fund Balances will require approval by the Board of Supervisors.

• Other Assignments or Commitments of the General Fund – establishment of these policies do not preclude the Board of Supervisors from setting aside additional funds for a specific project, program or capital item.

NOTE 7 COUNTY EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT PLAN (DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN)

A. General Information about the Pension Plan Plan Description All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the Butte County’s separate Safety and Miscellaneous Plans, agent multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS), which acts as a common investment and administrative agent for its participating member employers. Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by state statute and Butte County Resolution. CalPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plans including benefit provisions, actuarial assumptions and membership information that may be viewed on their website: http://www.calpers.ca.gov

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Benefits Provided CalPERS provide service retirement disability and death benefits, annual cost of living adjustments to plan members, who must be public employees and/or beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full time employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for nonduty disability benefits after 20 years of service. The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit, the 1957 Survivor Benefit, or the Optional Settlement 2W Death Benefit. The cost of living adjustments for each plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees’ Retirement Law. The contribution requirements of plan members and the County are established and may be amended by the Board of Supervisors in accordance with union contracts and plan provisions.

Contributions Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on July 1 following notice of a change in rate. The total plan contributions are determined through CalPERS’ annual actuarial valuation process. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of the employees. For the measurement period ended June 30, 2018 (the measurement date), the average active employee contribution rate is 6.879 percent of the annual pay for the Miscellaneous Plan, and 9.647 percent of annual pay for the Safety Plan. The employer’s contribution rate is 8.315 percent of the annual payroll for the Miscellaneous Plan, and 16.823 percent for the Safety Plan. Employer contribution rates may change if plan contracts are amended. It is the responsibility of the employer to make necessary accounting adjustments to reflect the impact due to any Employer Paid Member Contributions or situations where members are paying a portion of the employer contribution.

B. Net Pension Liability

Butte County’s net pension liability for each Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan’s fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of each of the Plans is measured as of June 30, 2018 using standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net pension liability is shown below

1 Net of pension plan investment and administrative expenses, includes inflation 2 The mortality table used was based on CalPERS’ specific data. The table includes

20 years of mortality improvement using the Society of Actuaries Scale BB. Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15%. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on the testing, none of the tested plans run out of assets. Therefore, the current 7.15% discount rate is adequate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not necessary. The long-term expected discount rate of 7.65% is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund. The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called “GASB Crossover Testing Report” that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under the GASB 68 section. According to Paragraph 30 of Statement 68, the long-term discount rate should be determined without reduction for pension plan administrative expense. The 7.50% investment return assumption used in this accounting valuation is net of administrative expenses. Administrative expenses are assumed to be 15 basis points. An investment return excluding administrative expenses would have been 7.15%. Using this lower discount rate has resulted in a slightly higher total pension liability and net pension liability. This difference was deemed immaterial to the agent multiple-employer plan. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Such cash flows were developed assuming that both members and employers will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years. Using historical returns of all the fund asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11 – 60 years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one percent. The table below reflects long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated using the capital market assumption applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These geometric rates of return are net of administrative expenses.

The new policy shortens the period over which actuarial gains and losses are amortized from 30 years to 20 years with the payments computed using a level dollar amount. In addition, the new policy removes the 5-year ramp-up and ramp-down on UAL bases attributable to assumption changes and non-investment gains/losses. The new policy removes the 5-year ramp-down on investment gains/losses. These changes will apply only to new UAL bases established on or after June 30, 2019. For inactive employers the new amortization policy imposes a maximum amortization period of 15 years for all unfunded accrued liabilities effective June 30, 2017. Furthermore, the plan actuary has the ability to shorten the amortization period on any valuation date based on the life expectancy of plan members and projected cash flow needs to the plan. The impact of this has been reflected in the correct valuation results. The contribution requirements determined in this actuarial valuation report are based on demographic and financial information as of June 30, 2018. Changes in the value of assets subsequent to that date are not reflected. Investment returns below the assumed rate of return will increase the required contribution, while investment returns above the assumed rate of return will decrease the required contribution. This actuarial valuation report reflects statutory changes, regulatory changes and Cal-PERS Board actions through January 2019. Any subsequent changes or actions are not reflected.

NOTE 8 OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB)

Plan Description The County provides health care benefits for retired employees and their beneficiaries through a single employer plan. The County sponsors healthcare coverage under the California Public Employees Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA), commonly referred to as PERS Health. PEMHCA provides halth insurance through a variety of Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) and Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) options. Participation in PEMHCA is financed in part by the County through a contribution to PEMHCA of $128.00, $133.00 and $136.00 for 2017, 2018, and 2019 respectively. Delta Dental, vision and life insurance are also available. For employees represented by Teamsters Local 137, coverage is funded through County and employee contributions.

Postretirement Coverage The County also offers medical, dental and vision coverage (but not life insurance) to its retirees who meet certain requirements per the County’s agreement with the employee. The County makes the required statutory PEMHCA contribution as described above. Furthermore, the County will make additional contributions towards certain eligible retirees' premiums until age 65 according to the County’s agreements with its various employee groups, as describe below. Retirees who have completed at least 10 cumulative years of service with the County, have accrued sick leave in excess of certain hours, and elect retiree health insurance rather than the sick leave payout option, are eligible to receive reimbursements from the County for the cost of medical, dental and vision insurance (offset by the County’s statutory contribution to PEMHCA.) Employees other than nonrepresented groups hired after June 30, 2010 will not be eligible for sick-leave buyout nor will they receive one year of County-paid health benefits after retirement. Retirees other than nonrepresented groups who retired on or after January 1, 2010 will be subject to a limit on County reimbursements equal to the sum of the Blue Shield HMO premium, Delta DPO and vision premiums. For Teamsters-General, Teamsters-SSW, BCMEA, BCCOA-General, BCCOA-Supervisory, PPOA, PPOA-Mgmt, Supervisor’s Administrative Services Assistants, and Miscellaneous and Assistant Probation Officer positions within the "Assistant Department Heads and Nonrepresented" group, the retiree may make an irrevocable election at the time of retirement to receive one of the following benefit options in addition to 12 months of County-paid health insurance:

1) One month of retiree-only premiums for each day of accrued sick leave at retirement; 2) One month of 2-party premiums (employee and spouse) for each 2-1/2 days in

excess of 30 days accrued sick leave to cover both employee and spouse until age 65; or

3) One month of retiree-only premiums for each day of accrued sick leave until the sick leave credit is exhausted or the retiree reaches age 65, and one month of premiums for spousal coverage for each day of accrued sick leave in excess of thirty days until the sick leave credit is exhausted or the spouse reaches age 65.

For DSA General, DSA Management, Under Sheriffs, and BCPEA, the retiree will receive 12 months of County-paid retiree-only health coverage. In addition, each one day of accrued sick leave is converted to one month of retiree-only health insurance premiums and credited to an account for the retiree. Premiums of the retiree and dependents, if applicable, are deducted from the account until it is depleted, or until the retiree reaches age 65, if earlier. Elected and appointed department heads or officials retiring in good standing before age 65 under the provisions of the County’s contract with PERS may continue to cover themselves and eligible dependents under the health plans. The County pays the full premium until age 65.

In all cases, once the additional County contributions (as described above) end, the County pays the applicable PEMHCA statutory contribution for the remainder of the retiree’s lifetime. Changes in Eligibility for Sick-Leave Buy-out Employees other than nonrepresented groups hired after June 30, 2010 will not be eligible for sick-leave buyout nor will they receive one year of County-paid health benefits after retirement. Retirees other than nonrepresented groups who retired on or after January 1, 2010 will be subject to a limit on County reimbursements equal to the sum of the Blue Shield HMO premium, Delta DPO and vision premiums. Healthcare Premiums The following table shows January 1, 2018 monthly PERS Health (PEMHCA) premiums for retirees within the Other Northern California region (Bay Area/Sacramento for Kaiser).

NOTE 9 RISK MANAGEMENT

The County is exposed to various risk of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The County has three risk management funds (Internal Service Funds) to consolidate the County’s insurance programs that are partially self-insured. Fund revenues are primarily premium charges to other funds and are planned to equal estimated expenses resulting from self-insurance programs, liability insurance coverage in excess of the self-insured amount, and operating expenses. The primary activities of the funds consist of risk management programs related to the following:

General Liability Insurance Unemployment Insurance Workers’ Compensation Insurance

For general liability and workers’ compensation claims, the County is a participant in the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) – Excess Insurance Authority excess liability insurance program. The County maintains a self-insured retention (SIR) of $100,000 per occurrence for its general liability program and $125,000 for its workers’ compensation program. The purpose of the pool is to spread the adverse effects of losses among the member agencies. The County pays an annual basic premium for excess coverage and is assessed an annual risk premium based on an actuarial review that estimates each of the program’s participant’s ultimate liabilities. Should the actual losses among participants be greater than anticipated, the County will be assessed its pro rata share of that deficiency. Conversely, if the actual losses are less than anticipated, the County will be refunded its pro rata share of the excess. Commercial insurance covers claims between $100,000 and $20,000,000 for general liability. Settled claims have not exceeded this commercial coverage in any of the past three fiscal years. The County is fully self-insured for its unemployment insurance program. Quarterly billings from the State Employment Development Department are sent to the County’s claims

reviewers, R.E. Harrington, Inc. After the claims are reviewed by R.E. Harrington, Inc., they are turned over to the County for payment. It is the County’s policy to accrue to the Internal Service Fund the estimated liability, as determined with the assistance of independent actuaries, for claims in cases where such amounts are reasonably determinable and where the likelihood of liability exists. All operating funds participate in the program and make payments to the insurance funds based on actuarial estimates of the amounts needed to pay prior and current year claims, and to allow accrual of estimated incurred but not reported claims. These claims liability estimates are based on the requirements of GASB Statements Nos. 10 and 30 and include estimate claims incurred but not yet reported as of June 30, 2019. The claims liability includes all allocated loss adjustment expenses as well as nonincremental claims adjustment expenses. Changes in the insurance funds’ claims liability amount during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and 2019 were as follows:

ClaimsClaims Incurred ClaimsLiability and Changes Claim Liability

Fiscal Year July 1 in Estimates Payments June 30

2017-2018 8,796,000$ 4,108,181$ (4,159,181)$ 8,745,000$

2018-2019 8,745,000$ 4,696,938$ (4,107,938)$ 9,334,000$

NOTE 10 CONTINGENCIES

Grants The County participates in a number of grant programs funded, in whole or part, by federal, state and other sources. These programs are subject to program compliance audits by the grantors or their representatives. The audits of these programs for or including the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, have not yet been conducted. Additionally, certain audits related to prior fiscal years have not been finalized. Accordingly, the County’s compliance with applicable grant requirements will be established at some future date. The amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time, although, the County expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial. Litigation The County is a defendant in various matters of litigation. Of these matters, management and County’s legal counsel do not anticipate any material effect on the June 30, 2019 financial statements.

NOTE 11 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

California State Budget The State is the source for a significant amount of Butte County’s revenues. The State has adopted a balanced budget for the 2019-2020 fiscal year and the County doesn’t anticipate additional state cuts. However, as in the past, if State revenue is cut midyear the County will make the necessary adjustments to address the reductions.

Camp Fire Settlement On November 8, 2018, the Camp Fire erupted and became the most destructive wildfire in California’s history. The fire burned 153,336 acres and damaged or destroyed more than 19,000 structures. 85 of our community members perished and more than 14,000 families were displaced. PG&E has accepted a Mediator’s proposal of $252 million to resolve the County’s Camp Fire claims. The Mediator’s proposal is exclusive of and does not affect the claims of any residents, individuals, or businesses. The payment is to be incorporated in, and subject to confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court, a plan of reorganization to be filed by PG&E in its pending Chapter 11 case. The settlement is part of a total settlement of $1 billion to be paid to local government entities pursuant to the confirmed plan of reorganization.

Department of Water Resources Settlement (DWR) Butte County and DWR reached an agreement on the lawsuit filed by Butte County for roadway damages and unreimbursed costs resulting from the Oroville Dam Spillway Incident in February 2017. The County has received $12 million from DWR in this settlement. During the Spillway Incident and the reconstruction work that followed, county roads were significantly damaged and the estimated repairs exceed $14 million. Additionally, during the event the County incurred $963,943 in unreimbursed costs related to emergency management and staffing costs during the evacuation when County offices were closed and/or evacuated employees were unable to work. Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors direct staff to utilize $963,943 to reimburse various County funds with the remaining balance of $11,036,057 transferred to the Road Fund to support the County's Road infrastructure. Specifically the $963,943 would be allocated as follows: $364,857 to the General Fund; $202,376 to the Social Services Fund; $37,091 to the Public Health Fund; $41,523 to the Behavioral Health Fund; $50,835 to the Child Support Fund; $266,559 to the Road Fund; and $702 to the IHSS Public Authority Fund. As these are funds reimbursing the County for costs already incurred, staff does not recommend appropriating the funds for other uses. The $11 million for county roads will be appropriated as projects move forward.

COUNTY OF BUTTE, CALIFORNIA NOTE TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2019

(101)

BUDGETARY INFORMATION Budgets are prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting consistent with GAAP. In accordance with the provisions of Sections 29000 and 29143, inclusive, of the California Government Code and other statutory provisions, commonly known as the County Budget Act, the County prepares a budget for each fiscal year on or before August 30. Budgeted expenditures are enacted into law through the passage of an Appropriation Resolution. This ordinance mandates the maximum authorized expenditures for the fiscal year and cannot be exceeded except by subsequent amendments to the budget by the County’s Board of Supervisors. An operating budget is adopted each fiscal year for all Governmental Funds except. Expenditures are controlled at the object level within budget units for the County. The object level within a budget unit is the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations. Any amendments or transfers of appropriations between object levels within the same budget unit or between departments or funds are authorized by the County Administrative Officer’s office and must be approved by the Board of Supervisors. The Board of Supervisors must approve supplementary appropriations normally financed by unanticipated revenues during the year. Pursuant to Board Resolution, the County Administrative Officer is authorized to approve transfers and revision of appropriations under $50,000 within a single budget unit as deemed necessary and appropriate. Budgeted amounts in the budgetary financial schedules are reported as originally adopted and as amended during the fiscal year by resolutions approved by the Board of Supervisors. The budget approved by the Board of Supervisors for the General Fund includes budgeted expenditures and reimbursements for amounts disbursed on behalf of other Governmental Funds. Actual reimbursements for these items have been eliminated in the accompanying budgetary financial schedules. Accordingly, the related budgets for these items have also been eliminated in order to provide a meaningful comparison of actual and budgeted results of operations. The budgets for the governmental funds may include an object level known as “intrafund transfers” in the charges for appropriations. This object level is an accounting mechanism used by the County to show reimbursements between operations within the same fund (an example would be the General Fund).

NONMAJOR GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS Special Revenue funds are established to finance particular governmental activities and are financed by specific taxes or other revenues. Such funds are authorized by statutory provisions to pay for certain activities of a continuing nature. The nonmajor Special Revenue funds are listed below: The Public Health Fund was established to provide public health services to the residents of Butte County. The Equipment Replacement Fund was established to provide financing for equipment purchases. The Transit Fund was established to account for the local transportation tax funds. The Housing and Community Development Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures relating to housing and community improvement and development. The Fish and Game Fund is used to account for fines and forfeitures received under Section 13003 of the State of California Fish and Game Code and for other revenue and expenditures for the propagation and conservation of fish and game. The Board of Supervisors authorizes expenditures on the advice of the Fish and Game Commission. The Child Support Services Fund was established by AB 196, AB 150, and SB 542 during fiscal year 2000-01 to provide separate fund accountability as required. These legislative bills mandated that all Family Support Divisions located in the District Attorney’s Offices become separate and independent departments. Child Support Services establishes paternity, obtains and enforces court orders for child support, collects and distributes payments, and provides community outreach about those services for the benefit of minor children. The County Service Areas Funds account for special district funds that provide sewer, drainage, fire, and street lighting and maintenance to specific areas in the County and are financed by property taxes and user charges. The IHSS Public Authority Fund allows for the maintenance of a registry and referral system to assist consumers in finding qualified in-home supportive services (IHSS) personnel as well as training of and support for providers and recipients of IHSS. Revenues primarily come from grants. The Impact Fee Fund was established to account for Impact Fees, Mitigation Fees, or Local Agency Improvement Fees that are charged by local agencies to developers for the purpose of defraying the cost of public facilities that will be needed in relation to the development project. The Disaster Recovery Fund was established to account for revenues received intended to be used to aid the county in the recovery process post disasters.

Any other government or enterprise fund may be reported as a major fund if the government’s officials believe that fund is particularly important to financial statement users. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. Is required supplementary information that introduces the basic financial statements and provides an analytical overview of the government’s financial activities. MEASUREMENT FOCUS. Types of balances (and related changes) reported in a given set of financial statements (economic resources, current financial resources, assets and liabilities resulting from cash transactions). MODIFIED ACCRUAL BASIS. Basis of accounting used in conjunction with the current financial resources measurement focus that modifies the accrual basis of accounting in two important ways: 1) revenues are not recognized until they are measureable and available and 2) expenditures are recognized in the period in which governments in general normally liquidate the related liability rather than when that liability is first incurred (if earlier).

That is, debt of another government that at least some of the reporting government’s taxpayers will also have to pay in whole or part. Lower levels of government are not required to treat debt of the state as overlapping debt, even though it technically meets this definition. Furthermore, states, regional governments, and counties are exempted from the requirement to present overlapping debt, although counties are still encouraged to do so. PROGRAM REVENUES. Term used in connection with the government-wide statement of activities. Revenues that derive directly from the program itself or from parties outside the reporting government’s tax base directly related to the program. They reduce the net cost of the function to be financed from the government’s general revenues. PROPRIETARY FUNDS.

RESTRICTED FUND BALANCE. The portion of the net position of a governmental fund that represents resources subject to externally enforceable constraints. RESTRICTED NET POSITION. One of three components of net position that must be reported in both government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. It consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities or deferred inflows of resources related to those assets. Generally, a liability or deferred inflow of resources relates to restricted assets if the assets results from a resource flow that also results in the recognition of a liability/deferred inflow of resources or if the liability will be liquidated with the restricted assets reported.

All the ways and means used to avoid accidental loss or to reduce its consequences if it does occur. SELF-INSURANCE. A term often used to describe the retention by an entity of a risk of loss arising out of the ownership of property or from some other cause, instead of transferring that risk to an independent third party through the purchase of an insurance policy. It is sometimes accompanied by the setting aside of assets to fund any related losses. Because no insurance is involved, the term self-insurance is a misnomer. SINGLE AUDIT. An audit designed to meet the needs of all federal grantor agencies and performed in accordance with the Single Audit Act of 1984 (as amended) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments and Non-Profit Organizations.

SPECIAL REVENUE FUND. Governmental fund type used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects and exclusive of resources held in trust for individuals, private organizations or other governments. TAX AND REVENUE ANTICIPATION NOTES (TRANS). Notes issued in anticipation of the collection of taxes and revenues, usually retirable only from tax collections, and frequently only from the proceeds of the tax and revenues levy whose collection they anticipate. TRUST FUNDS. Funds used to account for assets held by a government in a trustee capacity for individuals, private organizations, other governments, and/or other funds. UNASSIGNED FUND BALANCE, The residual classification for the County’s General fund that includes amounts not contained in the other classifications. In other funds, the unassigned classification is used only if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed the amounts restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes. UNDESIGNATED UNRESERVED FUND BALANCE. The difference between total fund balance in a governmental fund and its nonspendable, restricted, committed and assigned components.
